  • Surprise Episode: Deconstructing D'Angelo 1.1
    D'Angelo Wallace is a famous YouTube commentator with millions of subscribers. He is known for covering controversial topics/people with incredible amounts of research and nuance and is often praised for being an unbiased voice, which is refreshing in such a polarized landscape like the internet. But whenever he covers BTS or just Kpop in general, his commentary always seems to not only fall flat but come off as straight-up disrespectful. Come join us in our longest episode yet as we go through all four of his BTS/Kpop videos in detail, break them down, and discuss what exactly makes them so unbearable to watch.
